We DO NOT accept PHONE ORDERS!
*ALL* orders must be e-mailed to us
A FFL MUST BE on-file with us ALREADY before we will accept any order for a post-1898 firearm!
Federal Firearms Licenses cannot be "sent to us later". It is a very good idea to send us a signed copy of your (or your local transfer dealer's) FFL in advance for our files to avoid missing out on the item you may want. This is SOP in the industry. We will accept a FAX of a FFL. We will also NOW accept (and actually prefer) a scanned & emailed copies of your (or your dealers) FFL.
We will not "HOLD" any firearm without a FFL being on-file and payment MUST be made immediately via credit-card. NO EXCEPTIONS!

SOVIET Model 1891 Mosin-Nagant bolt-action rifle # 61202 (7.62x54R) mfg. by
Tula in 1919 with rare LARGE HAMMER on barrel shank. Excellent condition, with 90% or better bluing on receiver and barrel, less on magazine and triggerguard. Only bolt matches, magazine floorplate and buttplate has different serial numbers. Bore is somewhat bright and strong (has NOT been counterbored at muzzle). Buttstock and handguard has some of the expected handling marks, includes cleaning rod. By far the rarest 1891 rifle, the first we have ever encountered. PHOTOS . . . $1725. C&R
CZECH Model vz24 Mauser bolt-action short-rifle # 8955M2 (8x57) mfg. by CZ in 1929. Very Good condition with 50% fading blue and 3-line factory address atop chamber. The bore is quite rough but has strong lands and grooves. Mismatched straight bolt, no other numbered parts. No cleaning-rod, buttstock and handguard have some dings and handling-marks. PHOTO . . . $375. C&R
CHILEAN Model 1912 Mauser bolt-action infantry rifle # B4913 (originally 7x57mm, rebarreled by the Chileans to 7.62x51 NATO) mfg. by Waffenfabrik Steyr in 1912. Excellent condition, with 95% bluing (including receiver) and a very strong mirror-bright bore. All serialized metal parts matching. Mismatched stock (all rechambered 7.62 rifles have mismatched wood) has original finish with many handling marks in the 109-year interim, 1912-dated cartouche on left side. Missing cleaning-rod (it went AWOL when rechambered). PHOTOS . . . . $850. C&R
HUNGARIAN Model 48M Mosin-Nagant bolt-action rifle # DB7831 (7.62x54R) mfg. by FÉG (factory code 02) in 1952. Excellent-PLUS condition (essentially UNISSUED) with perfect bluing on all metal parts and a mirror-bright bore (NOT counterbored at muzzle). All matching serial numbers. Includes cleaning rod, has modern German proofs on left side of barrel. Streaked beech buttstock has only a couple of minor scuffs but otherwise totally pristine. While Hungarian PU snipers are quite scarce, regular Hungarian 91/30-type rifles like this one are extremely rare. An UNIMPROVABLE museum-quality example, worthy of the FINEST COLLECTION.
